"Is there truly a method in this world that can allow one to break through to the Nine Realms of Spirit?" Zhu Houji asked Wu Shijiu with doubt, "If that's the case, then why are there so few powerful beings in the Nine Realms of Spirit in this world?"
By now, Zhu Houji is no longer the ignorant novice he was when it comes to the Cultivation World. At his level, whether it is some experiential knowledge from the Cultivation World or his understanding of cultivation realms, he is clear about the difficulty of crossing from the Spirit Realm Eightfold to the Nine Realms of Spirit. It's an insurmountable chasm, difficult to overcome.
If the Witch God Sect Leader's words are true and he can easily help Wu Shijiu breakthrough, then there would be many strong beings in this world. If it was so easy to cross this chasm, then the number of powerful beings in the Nine Realms of Spirit wouldn't be so rare.
